    Damn, we need this right now. I just hope once it comes out, they don't charge ridiculous amounts of money to poor people who had an unfortunate accident and need a transplant organ to survive.

    It will be very expensive early on but like with any technology it should get cheaper gradually. Still, doesn't mean people should be denied it simpley because they're not ultra rich.

    You might be a vegetable after consuming that much alcohol but you'll have a new liver.

    Smokers of the world rejoice, you will soon be able to disregard all those disgusting tobacco commercials with "before and after" pictures of lungs.

    I always assumed they would develop non-deadly tobacco before they would develop artificial organs that could be sold at competitive prices.
